Emulsion-templated poly(acrylamide)s by using polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) stabilized CO₂-in-water emulsions and their applications in tissue engineering scaffolds

Abstract

Commercially available polymer <italic>i.e.</italic>, polyvinyl alcohol (PVA), is used to produce stable CO₂/water emulsions. These emulsions were then used to produce emulsion templated hierarchically porous materials with interesting tissue engineering applications.
